If you use HTML::Template then you can pass it an array of hashes and have it iterate over the array, printing out a checkbox for every element in the array, which is what I think you want.

The HTML:Template code to do this looks like this(cut straight from some production code):

<TMPL_LOOP NAME=fields>
<INPUT TYPE=CHECKBOX NAME="field_<TMPL_VAR NAME="id">" <TMPL_VAR NAME=
+"value">>
<TMPL_VAR NAME="text">
<br>
        </TMPL_LOOP>

You must then pass an array of anonymous hashes which look like this: { id => "id number", value => "checkbox value", text => "What the user sees next to the checkbox" }. In your program this would look like(untested code):

push @array, { id => "id number", value => "checkbox value", text => "
+What the user sees" };
